Multi-temporal dataset of stand and canopy structural data in temperate and Mediterranean coppice forests

We provided long-term stand and canopy structural data from permanent monitoring plots representative of some most diffuse temperate and Mediterranean forests, under different coppice management regimes. Periodic inventories were performed in the surveyed plots since the 70s. Annual litterfall production and its partitioning (leaf, woody, reproductive parts) and optical canopy measurements using the LAI-2000 Plant Canopy Anayzer were performed every year in these plots since the 90s. These data can be used for evaluating the influence of coppice management on stand and canopy structure, the parametrization of radiative transfer models that require accurate ground truth data, as well as the calibration of high to medium resolution remotely-sensed data.

本数据集收录了代表部分广泛分布的温带和地中海森林的长期固定监测样地中树木生长和冠层结构数据，这些数据是在不同的择伐管理方式下采集的。自20世纪70年代起，对调查样地进行了定期盘点。自90年代起，每年在这些样地中进行了年落叶产量及其分配（叶、木质、繁殖部分）的测量，以及使用LAI-2000植物冠层分析仪进行的冠层光学测量。这些数据可用于评估择伐管理对林分和冠层结构的影响，为需要精确地面真值数据的辐射传输模型的参数化提供依据，以及用于高至中分辨率遥感数据的高精度校准。
